Product Information

Full details

This Kenable BNC cable is designed for CCTV camera video interconnections, offering a reliable 75ohm RG59 coaxial connection with pure copper conductors. Its primary benefit is a stable, interference-resistant video signal for surveillance systems. A potential caveat is its short 0.25m length, which may require extensions for longer runs. Key features include durable RG59 construction, pure copper conductors, and standard BNC connectors.

FAQs

What is the length of this cable?

This cable is 0.25 meters (approximately 9.8 inches) long.

What type of cable is this?

This is an RG59 75ohm coaxial cable designed for video signals.

What are BNC plugs?

BNC plugs are a type of coaxial RF connector with a bayonet-style fitting, commonly used for video and radio frequency equipment.

Can this cable be used for audio?

While BNC connectors can sometimes be used for audio, this specific cable is designed and optimized for analog video signals like those from CCTV cameras.

Is this cable suitable for high-definition video?

RG59 cable is generally suited for standard definition analog video. For high-definition digital signals (like HD-SDI or 4K), a different type of coaxial cable (e.g., RG6 or RG11) or a different transmission technology might be more appropriate.

How do I clean the BNC connectors?

Use a clean, dry, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the metal contacts of the BNC connectors. Avoid using any liquids or abrasive materials.

What does '75ohm' mean?

75ohm refers to the characteristic impedance of the coaxial cable. This is the standard impedance for video signals to ensure minimal signal reflection and loss.

Troubleshooting

No video signal on the monitor.

Ensure both BNC connectors are securely twisted and locked onto the camera and DVR/monitor. Verify that the input/output ports are correct and that the camera and display device are powered on. Check if the cable is damaged.

Flickering or poor quality video.

Check for loose connections. Ensure the cable is not routed near strong sources of electrical interference. Inspect the cable for any visible damage. If the distance is long, consider a higher quality cable or an amplifier.

BNC connector is difficult to attach.

Ensure you are using the correct type of BNC connector. Do not force the connector; check for any obstructions or bent pins. Clean the connector and port if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a stable and clear video signal for CCTV applications.
  • Uses pure copper conductors for superior signal quality.
  • Features standard BNC connectors for secure and easy attachment.
  • Durable RG59 construction ensures longevity.
  • Compact 0.25m length is perfect for short, tidy connections.

Cons

  • The 0.25m length is too short for many installations, requiring adapters or extension cables.
  • Primarily designed for video; not suitable for data or audio transmission.
  • RG59 is suitable for standard definition; higher resolutions might benefit from different cable types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both the camera and the recording device (DVR, monitor) have standard BNC input/output ports.
  2. Align the BNC connector on the cable with the corresponding port on the device.
  3. Push the connector in and twist clockwise until it locks securely. Repeat for the other end of the cable.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with any device featuring standard BNC connectors, commonly found on CCTV cameras, DVRs, VCRs, and professional video equipment.
  • Suitable for analog standard definition video signals.

Care:

  • Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable, which can damage the internal conductors.
  • Keep connectors clean; use a dry, lint-free cloth to wipe them if dusty. Avoid using liquids.
  • Protect the cable from excessive heat, moisture, and physical impact.
